India has a vast amount of biomass and the biopower industry has a significant growth potential in the country. Biomass power plants in India are using agricultural wastes to generate power. There are also several gasifier-based power plants that are leading the way in providing a solution for generating off-grid decentralized power. The greatest challenge facing the Indian biopower industry is the stability of the biomass supply chain as biomass is not available throughout the entire year.

As the Indian government pushes for the growth of renewables, biopower is one of the affordable energy supplies that the government has set its eyes on. The Indian biopower market is currently the fourth biggest in the world and accounts for just above 5% of the global installed capacity of biopower by the end of 2016. It is expected that with government support, the industry is going to witness significant growth in the coming years to 2020.
